camera2stamp

Last months stamp of the month from Stamps of Life was called camera2stamp. What a cute little stamp set. Here is what I created using parts of the stamp set.

I placed two of the stamps together to create my background.

The large camera was stamped with embossing ink, then white embossing powder was used to bring out the camera on the black cardstock. The camera was cut out with one of the many dies that came with this set. I am not able to cut straight so you gotta love the dies that come with this set :)

I really like how it turned out.

Have a great Sunday!

The Stamps of Life crazy4daisies

crazy4daises is another cute little stamp from the stamps of life I am not sure if I had mentioned this, but Stephanie now has matching dies. So of course I now belong to "the die hard" club which means I get a stamp and matching dies set sent to me each month :)

I wanted to make a simple card and I think I achieved it. I love how this card turned out.

 I hope you can see the embossing around the petals of the flower. I achieved this by using the die!
 The ink I used on the flower and the "hello" was the archival Chrome Yellow I then used the distress inks and markers on the stem and leaves peeled paint and forest moss. For the center I used the new distress glitter. I love this new glitter!

That is it for now
Take care

The Stamps of LIfe spinner2stamp

What a cute little stamp set from The {Stamps} of life

This card was fun to make.
I used Stampin' up paper, Kiwi lane templates and some of Tim Holtz distress glitter!

Lights4Christmas

I decided to make a gift card holder using the latest stamp set from The {stamps} of life   called Lights4Christmas. Love the lights! I added some glitter rock candy to give the sparkle.  I also used a little trio tree stamp that came from an older stamp set called Joy2Christmas also from The {stamps} of life  to create a background on the card.

WOW I need to clean my room lol I've created quite a mess from these last few projects. But I enjoyed every minute.

Hope to share with you all again soon.

ladybugs2love

I love this stamps set!

I received this stamp set last month and am finally able to use it! The stamp set came from the stamps of life

I was also able to use my new embossing folder along with a spellbinders die if I remember correctly it is called tulips.

I used stampin up chalks to colour the leaves green and the single flower pink. I also used pink chalk along the edges of the white circle as well as the white oval.

That is all for now
Have a great week!

boots4rain

Another stamp of the month from The {Stamps} of life

I am impressed that I am not at the deadline this time! the deadline is at midnight on the 15th of each month.

This stamp set was fun to play with. I took many photos trying to capture the wet look on the boots. I accomplished my task. I used a spray called goosebumps, love that stuff.

I am thinking that I will have to make a matching game for the children to play with. I am sure they will love it!

pinwheels2stamp

This is the stamp of the month from  The {Stamps} of life

I have always loved pinwheels and when Stephanie came out with this stamp set I was so EXCITED!!
Here is my card that I created using this stamp set.

I also used a couple of templates from Kiwi Lane Designs
This was the first time I have used them and they were fun to play with. I am sure that I will be ordering more in the future.

hearts2diefor

hearts2diefor is the stamp of the month from The {Stamps} of life.

I really liked the size of hearts, easy to work with when making cards.
Here is my latest creation using this stamp set.

The papers used for the base is called crumb cake from SU. The printed papers came from a Kaisercraft 6x6 pad the line was called sweet nothings which was left over from last year. The flowers are Iamroses spritzed with moonshadow. The heart was stamped using SU pretty in pink ink then embossed with rangers holographic embossing powder. I wish I would have been able to capture the sparkle in the photo.

There you have it :)

Postage2stamp

Another FUN! stamp set from the {stamps} of  life!
I used papers from an older my minds eye  6x6 pad. There were some awesome papers in this little pad. I used alcohol ink from Ranger to colour the pearls, I forgot which colour I used.

It really was a quick and fun card to make :)
Have a great weekend everyone!

trees4Christmas

Here is my first Christmas tag this year and it's only October!

I used the {Stamps} of life stamp of the month to create the tag. The trees were stamped and cut out along  with the words Love; Peace; Joy.
I wanted to use a little mixed media so I used a Tim Holtz on the edge snow flurry sizzix die to create a stencil and pulled out some of Claudine Hellmuth's gesso from my stash and placed it at the bottom edge of the tag to create some depth. I also used white acyrlic paint all around the edges of the tag. I liked how it turned out.
Someone will be getting this tag on their gift this year :)

turtles2love

I managed to make a mini clipboard using the stamp set turtles2love from The{Stamps} of Life
I was watching a utube video on how to create a mini clipboard using a wooden clothespin and thought it would be great to use this stamp set on it.

I made the hanger big enough so that if I wanted to I could hang it on a door knob. I love how this turned out and I know that i will be using it. I need reminders all the time :) It is just so cute!

Just as soon as I find the link to the video I will post it here.
